The Partially Flipped Classroom: The Effects of Flipping a Module on "Junk Science" in a Large Methods Course
Burgoyne, Stephanie; Eaton, Judy
Teaching of Psychology, v45 n2 p154-157 Apr 2018
Flipped classrooms are gaining popularity, especially in psychology statistics courses. However, not all courses lend themselves to a fully flipped design, and some instructors might not want to commit to flipping every class. We tested the effectiveness of flipping just one component (a module on junk science) of a large methods course. We compared two sections, one in a traditional format (n = 128) and the other in a flipped format (n = 139), based on students' academic performance and attitudes toward the class structure. Compared to students in the traditional lecture section, students in the flipped section performed significantly better on a quiz tied to the lecture content and rated their enjoyment of the exercise as higher. These findings demonstrate the utility of using partial flipped classroom techniques with large classes.
